*notes: I don’t like the “your items will disappear soon” subject line a lot of companies use. MAYBE use it when there’s an overwhelming amount of items that took a lot of work to get in the cart. But people are bugged more by the fact that an incomplete cart is always going to be taking up space in the company’s database somewhere. It feels like owing someone money. Why would we offer to clean up their tracks and cut ties/erase any obligations they have to us? On top of that, we promise even more friction for them if they decide to come back after the fact. 
*Considerations for first email:
-only feature one item
-either the one they put in their cart first or the best selling item from their cart

Subject: We have been facing criticism. 

Preview: We’d like to address the criticism we have received…

Dear PBA family,

Since we started our company over a decade ago, we have inevitably faced some criticism. 

But here’s the catch: this is precisely what has made us the company we are today. 

Sometimes the only way to get better is to listen to people’s problems. 

And that’s exactly what we do. We fix problems. 

Every complaint we get is given a serious time of day. If there’s a better way to serve our customers, it happens immediately. 

That’s why you find very little issues with our products and services. 

And it pays off. We don’t get very much criticism anymore. 

Our company itself has become bulletproof. And we couldn’t have done so without a few live fire tests.

We are always improving. If you have any feedback or thoughts for us, reply to this email. 

If you’d like to tell the world how great we are, please leave a review. We can only pat ourselves on the back so much.

Cheers,

Premier Body Armor Team

Email #1 (Simply ask for a review):

Subject: The #1 reason people choose us

Dear {{ first_name|default:"PBA Family" }},

For some reason, a large amount of our customers come from reviews.

Okay, fine. It's because our reviews are great. And that doesn't just happen naturally.

So what's our secret?

We don't incentivized people to leave 5 star reviews. We gave people 5 star products. 

If we’ve done our job right, we hope you’ll consider leaving us a review. It will help us make the world a safer place.

We do everything in our power to make the best body armor, accessible to as many people as possible. 

We’re about saving lives, the best way we know how.

We like to think that our orders translate to more lives being saved.

Email #3 (C Test):

Dear {{ first_name|default:"PBA Family" }},

As a company we have always tried to focus on serving our customers. But today we’re going to ask you for something.

When we started in 2013, we quickly built a reputation for making quality safety products.

This was thanks to customers like you leaving positive reviews all across the internet 

After a while, we figured our reputation couldn’t get much better.

That’s where we were wrong—to this very day, we’ve noticed that every single review makes a positive impact. 

So—we hope you’ll consider leaving a review to help others make the right decision when it comes to body armor.
